After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

"Young Master Bo, you actually came to buy groceries in person?"

Huangfuhao then noticed that Bo Yuxiu was standing in front of him in line.

When Bo Yuxiu turned around and saw Huangfu Hao, he was quite surprised.

"It's rare to see such a busy lawyer personally shopping for groceries at the supermarket."

"My career is gradually getting on track, and I have some personal time now," Huangfuhao said, pushing up his glasses and looking at Shen Yao with a familiar warmth in his eyes.

Shen Yao felt a little awkward and turned her head away embarrassedly.

When it was time to pay, Shen Yao wanted to offer to pay, but Huangfu Hao beat her to it.

"There's no need to make such clear distinctions between us."

Bo Yuxiu stood at the door, his eyes fixed on the two of them, his handsome face hidden in shadow, making it impossible to discern his true expression.

"It's too late, I'll come to your house another day."

Shen Yao declined Huangfu Hao's invitation and went straight to her car.

She doesn't want the groceries she bought at the supermarket tonight.

Taking the opportunity, Bo Yuxiu said, "Then you should go back and rest early."

Shen Yao nodded and got into the car. Huangfu Hao was about to chase after her, but Bo Yuxiu stopped him.

"Attorney, shall we have a talk?"

Huangfu Hao narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately understood what he meant.

"Okay, let's talk."

Watching Shen Yao's car gradually disappear into the distance.

The smile on Bo Yuxiu's face gradually faded to his lips.

Ten minutes later, Bo Yuxiu and Huangfu Hao, two grown men, arrived at a bar.

Huangfu Hao sat down first and loosened his tie. "Young Master Bo, I never expected that you and Yao Yao would get so close without me noticing."

There was a hint of jealousy in his words.

Bo Yuxiu smiled faintly and asked the waiter to bring two glasses of wine.

"It's thanks to Attorney Huangfu's busy career that I have this opportunity. I don't want to waste any more time; you won't have this opportunity anymore."

Huangfu Hao crossed his legs and raised his eyebrows slightly. "Young Master Bo, aren't you being a bit too domineering? Do you have to interfere with who I like?"

"I'm just trying to make you give up on this idea sooner. After all, even without me, Yao Yao wouldn't choose you, so why bother with these pointless struggles?"

Bo Yuxiu raised his wine glass and forcibly clinked it with Huangfuhao from a distance.

The crisp sound of clinking glasses echoed in my ears.

Huangfu Hao also drank a large glass of wine. "Why? What right do you have to interfere?"

Bo Yuxiu drank another large glass of wine. "Because you've already abandoned Shen Yao, what face do you have left to still want her true love?"

The music in the bar was deafening, but Bo Yuxiu's words were clearly heard, and Huangfuhao's face turned ashen.

He was just about to ask Bo Yuxiu how he knew.

Bo Yuxiu slammed his wine glass down, said "I'm leaving," and got up to walk towards the hotel entrance.

Huangfu Hao shouted from behind, "You didn't pay."

A waiter wearing a tie rushed over and said, "Sir, your friend has already paid."

Huangfu Hao was slightly taken aback, then smiled, "As expected, it's Young Master Bo."

He glanced at the price of the wine; two bottles cost 5.

......

Back home, Shen Yao lay wearily on the sofa.

She never expected that what she had planned to do to treat herself to a nice meal would turn out like this: the food ended up in Huangfuhao's hands.

Just as I was thinking about what to order for takeout, the doorbell rang.

Shen Yao got up to open the door and found that it was a food delivery guy wearing a yellow uniform and a helmet.

"Hey beautiful lady, your takeout has arrived."

Shen Yao recognized the voice. She squinted and looked closely before recognizing who was in front of her.

"Superstar Chu is here."

When Chu Yao realized he had been recognized, he quickly took off his helmet and handed the takeout to Shen Yao.

"Sister, a heartwarming delivery."

Under the warm light, the boy's smile looked very kind and heartwarming.

A gentle breeze carried the aroma of food, and Shen Yao's stomach rumbled reflexively as soon as she smelled it.

Twenty minutes later, the two were eating face to face.

After finishing their meal, Shen Yao felt bad for Chu Yao cooking and bringing her food lately, so she asked him what gift he wanted.

Chu Yao swept the kitchen waste on the table into the trash can, washed his hands, and then sat back down in his chair.

"Sister, be my girlfriend."

Shen Yao never expected that Chu Yao would become more determined after being rejected so many times.

She smiled helplessly: "When so many reporters took pictures of you that time, didn't you hate me?"

Chu Yao shrugged, a magnanimous expression appearing on his handsome face.

"I don't hate him. I've reflected on myself and realized I was too reckless."

Shen Yao was about to say something when suddenly the living room lights flickered incessantly, and with a snap, the entire room plunged into darkness.

Shen Yao is afraid of the dark.

She looked nervously at the complete darkness in front of her. "The power's out."

Although she tried to remain calm, Chu Yao could still sense her fear in her slightly trembling voice.

"Sister, don't be afraid."

Chu Yao groped his way to Shen Yao's side in the darkness.

The fear that darkness instills in people is innate.

Despite trying to regulate her breathing, Shen Yao still felt short of breath.

"Sister, I'm here, don't be afraid."

Chu Yao, who was usually carefree and irresponsible, suddenly spoke in a reliable and gentle tone.

Shen Yao managed to let out a low "hmm" sound from her throat.

After a long ten minutes, the power was finally restored.

Shen Yao instinctively covered her eyes with her hand.

Being in the dark for too long is frightening, while being in the sun is too bright.

Shen Yao's whole body remained tense until she felt a warm sensation on her shoulder.

"Sister, it's okay."

Chu Yao's gentle voice rang out, and Shen Yao seemed to wake up from a nightmare.

She turned her head to look and saw that Chu Yao's eyes were full of worry.

After her eyes adjusted to the light in the room, Shen Yao finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

She was about to get up when she felt a wave of dizziness.

His body swayed unsteadily, and he looked like he was about to fall.

Chu Yao reacted quickly and stood up to support her shoulders.

"Sister, don't be afraid, lean on my shoulder if you're tired."

Unable to control the feeling of weakness in her body, Shen Yao softly collapsed into Chu Yao's arms.

"Let me lean on you for a moment." She remained defiant.

Chu Yao smiled and said, "Lean on me for as long as you want."

Shen Yao felt that the young man in front of her was still glib, but much more reliable than before.

I don't know how long I held that position.

Just as Shen Yao was about to get up, she felt Chu Yao tighten his grip on her shoulders.

I heard warm breaths beside my ear.

She turned her head, wanting Chu Yao to let go of her.

Chu Yao pressed her forehead against Chu Yao's and murmured softly.

"Sister, I really like you. Aren't you going to give me a chance?"

The man's voice was hoarse and low, suppressing his deepest emotions.

Shen Yao felt as if she were lying in a furnace.
